pipes and all other smokers goods

salt at $1.25; and remember also

SEVERAL of our citizens are dis
cussing the project of putting steam
in their dwellings. Steam is now

own town is counting the same ex-
perience.

streets in the dark without any dan
ger of falling out of town.

We suggest that the Town Council
go up and see Fairmont under cleo
trio light and take notes. If that
kind of light will serve town that
stands on end, it might be better
suited to a town which sets square
on its base.
